Cover Reveal! - LAND (Continuity Edition) by Bjorn Larssen

Out of This World SFF is extremely excited today to be able to bring you an exclusive Cover Reveal of the Continuity Edition of Bjorn Larssen's upcoming November 5th fantasy book release LAND!!! 

What is a continuity edition you ask? Well, let's hear it from author Bjorn Larssen himself as he states:

"Nick has been so complimentary about the original red cover of the first book in the series, Children that I thought of people - like myself - who hate series where each book looks different. The Continuity Edition is for you and you can thank Nick for that."

First of all, it's incredibly humbling to have an author say they provided another version of their cover because of something that you said in a review. I mean, in no way did I see that one coming. So thanks Bjorn! But at the same time I'm so glad that he decided to give the option of this additional cover because I must say that it is so visually gorgeous and you will see what I mean in just a minute. 

Before I get to showing you the CE cover of LAND though, I'd like to first provide a brief synopsis of this second book in The Ten Worlds cycle...

Back Cover Blurb

Loss. Love. Land. Happy Never After.

The truth Maya fought for all her life turns out to be a lie a thousand years long. She neither understands nor knows how to wield her hidden power, simultaneously endless and limited, forcing her to face responsibility for the harm she causes and parry countless questions she has no answers to. Neither time nor space can stop her - but can she stop herself?

Bound with an unbreakable love spell, Magni and Thorolf, both raised in darkness and pain, only share one thing: the fear of revealing their truths. One was born to be a God; the other knows only a slave's life. One craves peace and quiet; the other believes peace is a brief reprieve between wars. As they mourn those they have lost, the constant war of their own threatens to destroy all they have left - each other.

Haunted by Gods old and new , in the shadow of Odin's raven, they head to conquer the new Asgard. Apart from their demons, nothing and nobody is what it seems. Unwilling to give up love, freedom, or land they're fated to live happily never after...unless destiny can be altered after all?

Okay, now let's get down to business, shall we?

Here it is, in all its utmost magnificence....
